A thin circular disc of radius a has a total charge Q uniformly distributed over it. It lies in the x - y plane, centered on the origin. The charge density on the disc is p(F) = 8(2') for x2 + y2 ≤ a² and 0 elsewhere. Calculate (a) the electrostatic potential and (b) the electric field at a general point z on the positive z axis. e ла²
